5-Star Average
Eye Exam
"I adored the secretary as she was welcoming and friendly when I walked in. The smile on her face and cordiality made me feel cared for. The optometrist was phenomenal and truly impressed me. He explained every detail of what he was doing and how he was prescribing me. It made me feel reassured that I was in safe hands."
Anonymous Patient
General Exam
"Excellent service as always. They listen to your inquiries and concerns and fix it. Dr. Velazquez and his staff at Costco is doing commendable. Keep up the good work. I am a happy camper."
Verified Patient
Eye Exam
"I had a great experience starting from the front desk, very polite and excellent service. The doctor was very helpful and she explained and made sure I understood everything. I appreciate and value their help."
Verified Patient
Dry Eye Treatment
"I've been struggling with dry eyes for years and no one could give me real answers until I came here. The doctor took the time to explain what was causing the irritation and set me up with a treatment plan that actually works. First time in a long time my eyes don't feel like sandpaper."
Maria R.
Pediatric Eye Exam
"Brought my 7-year-old in for his first eye exam and it couldn't have gone smoother. The staff was so patient with him and made the whole thing feel like an adventure. We walked out with a prescription and a kid who was actually excited about getting glasses. Highly recommend for families."
Parent — Pediatric Exam
Contact Lens Fitting
"I've worn contacts for over 10 years and this was the most thorough fitting I've ever had. The doctor went over every option, explained the differences between lenses, and made sure the prescription felt right before we wrapped up. No rushed visit, no upselling — just genuinely good care."
Verified Patient
OPTOS Retinal Imaging
"They have the OPTOS retinal imaging here and it is worth every penny. The doctor showed me the image of my retina on screen and walked me through exactly what she was looking at. It's the first time I've actually understood what's going on inside my own eye. Incredible technology and an even better doctor."
Verified Patient
Annual Exam
"Quick, thorough, and genuinely friendly. I was in and out in under an hour with a new prescription and a clear explanation of how my vision has changed. The Costco location is super convenient and the team here is just as professional as any standalone clinic I've been to."
